Awesome Idea, I'd really like to see how effective this 2L setup is

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Go to your gallery and click on the photo so it is enlarged. Then copy the url.
Go back to where you reply and click "insert image" (not the old camera one, the one next to it)
Then paste the URL
Kind of a pain but it should be resolved soon
Edit: The old way is working for me again. Just click the camera, and make sure at the top is says "From: photopost gallery. Insert what: Original only"

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Nice set up Dadums, Cant wait to see them finish. That makes hydro seem easy. Gonna throw one of these together for my next grow to replace the hempy buckets I'm trying now on my first grow. I bought the buckets already so got to wait to hit the wife with more $$ going into growing, she is already shell shocked at what I need to put into it.

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Every time my wife complains about the cost I remind her how much we saved by growing our own. My whole setup cost under $300. That includes TDS and PH meters bubble cloner parts panda with zippers Mylar for the walls BP nutes buckets microscope and foam board insulation for walls that you don't see here Well you can see the foam. That 12 pack cfl is all dollar store (I did already have a pop riveter) The most expensive thing on the rack is the glue and epoxy putty. I think I can get garden hose adapters that the 2L bottles will screw into. Start saving your bottles. I think I might leave out the gravel to save weight and do an 8 pack then it may go to a 10 pack, but I won't need one that big. This is the first time I've had the 12 pack for the whole grow and I am big on the thermal advantage, but they do throw off heat. Just look in the top picture just past the plug you can see where a bulb melted the foam wall board when my assistant moved the lights so one was touching it. I was pretty warm with 12 running in my face as I put on the wings.

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
I've been taking a bit from everywhere on this site to McGiver things up and love what I see here for DIY. Saving $$ on meds is my ultimate goal. My wife could supply more than my 2Liter needs in short order, She has a Diet Coke problem but that is her one and only vice so I cant complain. I think a light pack like yours is in my immediate future. if I can find my rivet gun its been a few years since it's been used. One ? do you just water/nute each one individuality until it flushes old water out of each one, just top off unit as a whole or empty the unit and refill with fresh water/nutes?
Keep up the great work I'll stay updated.

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Next change
final TDS 921
final PH 7.6
Hew batch "Transition Mix"
2 Gallon spring water
TDS 229
PH 9.1
with nutes & Super thrive
TDS 1121
PH 5.6
Runoff PH 7.2
Twelve12 I'm still worried about my PH going up it jumped 1.6 just running through the system.
I don't want to run lower on what I add, but I figure if it was my brand of coco it would have flushed by now.
I got some spots on a few leaves not much, but I worry about the girls. Over all every one looks healthy. just wish they were all the same age at the start.
Lots of stretch for 3 days of flower

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Did some upgrades to the grow corner. Keeping to my dollar store theme added emergency blankets and the shelf. Top will be banzai mothers cloner and veg bottom flower. Tomorrow the big fan and panda film the front.
Still stretching. Can't wait for buds to form.
My 2 cheap fleabay led panels from the first grow before I knew much... RED
I hung them on the 12 pack with that on you can't tell they are there

Very nice! Is there a light on top as well, or just the sides?

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
There are 12-28 watt cfls on top I use the leds for side fill
I left the cfls off for the red shot
or they would be washed out

Re: 6pack 2L Hybrid Hempy rack unknown strain
Week #2 flower
for 2 gallon
final TDS 1100
final PH 8.1
Hew batch "Bloom"
Filtered tap water
TDS 433
PH 7.6
with nutes & Super thrive
TDS 1146
PH 5.6
Runoff PH 7.3
Did a little defoliating got the burnt leaves off
Next rack on the way, but that's another story
Got a new toy so I can sit at the computer and know right now
temp 67
RH 65%
Low
temp58
RH 55%
I have to get the carbon filter running soon it is getting a little fragrant in the basement.
This is my 5th grow with this strain and I can see that the extra vegging that the 2 older plants made a big difference, although I was expecting more stretch in flower.
I will say that I love BPN nutes I have never had fan leaves this big before and usually lost the lower ones. I am not setting any yield records with my crop, but it looks to be my personal best yet thanks
and all here.

Added panda to the front and now its up to 70F and 67% and now I have absolute light security. The 2 older girls are showing off ... not much longer to bud porn. I was pleasantly surprised I had to raise the lights again. I don't like the rise in humidity, I have a feeling the dehumidifier is getting old. It used to keep the whole basement at 50%

Still stretching and looking healthy.
Added a system to water all at once, but the middle 2 didn't get flow and bucket leaked.
I'm trying again at sealing the bucket with more silicone. For now It's back to the measuring cup.
I'm not in a real hurry about odor the fresh smell I get right now is pleasant and only noticeable close to the plants.
